The Black Faculty Staff Association (BFSA), aspire to create a campus climate that is inviting, nurturing, and hospitable. They are dedicated to establishing a proactive environment that is supportive of the recruitment, retention, and affirmative action of Black faculty, staff, and students. They promote programs that lead to the better understanding and teaching of Black students. They are a multicultural and diverse association. Decision-making and accountability are shared, creating an environment that is vital, challenging, rewarding, and enjoyable. Our Association makes a difference--it enriches the lives of our campus community.
The Cal Poly Black Alumni Chapter’s mission is to build and strengthen bonds between alumni and students. By providing opportunities for Black alumni, faculty, students, and staff to connect, our diverse network works to ensure that all Cal Poly students have access to the increased educational and career opportunities that are fundamental to making the Cal Poly experience so enriching and unique.
Throughout the year, CPBAC puts on a variety of fun and exciting events, including Fall Tailgate, Black Commencement, and Black Legacy Weekend to provide Black alumni and students to cultivate relationships on academic, professional, and interpersonal levels.
Established on January 25, 2014, the Cal Poly Black Alumni Chapter's bylaws serve as the foundational framework for our collective efforts.
